A tiny hampster using detached toenails as snowshoes

Another image from the Dad's Toenail book that I drew, based on a story by my friend Andy. The idea here is of a hampster using toenails as snowshoes. Silly stuff.

Another sketch from the 'Dad's Toenail' book




Another pen and ink image of the grandfather from "Dad's Toenail", a very silly book I illustrated last year.

Old Guy!





Sketches in ink for a children's book I illustrated, called "Dad's toenail". I did these back when I was a big fan of inking with nibs, or frustrating, sharp and easily-broken metal dipping pens that have a propensity to splatter ink. I've since gotten hooked on the line quality of brush.
